POB) 28 June 2018 | 17:30 – 20:00 CEST Meeting Minutes Meeting of the Polio Oversight Board (POB) 28 June 2018 | 17:30 – 20:00 CEST Meeting Minutes POB Member Attendees: Chris Elias (POB Chair, BMGF); Mike McGovern, representing John Germ (Rotary); Omar Abdi, representing Henrietta Fore (UNICEF); Robert Redfield (CDC); Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus (WHO) All Other Attendees: Akhil Iyer (UNICEF); Andre Doren (WHO); Anne Ottosen (UNICEF); Carol Pandak (Rotary); Dan Walter (WHO); Jay Wenger (BMGF); John Vertefeuille (CDC); Michel Zaffran (WHO); Michiyo Shima (UNICEF); Ranieri Guerra (WHO); Rebecca Martin (CDC); Sarah Standard (BMGF); Suchita Guntakatta (BMGF) Opening Remarks Dr. Elias welcomed all Polio Oversight Board members to the meeting, noting that the meeting was to be John Germ’s last though he was unfortunately unable to join due to illness. The Chair welcomed Mike McGovern to his new role as the Rotary member for the POB going forward. I. Endemic Country Updates Presenter: Michel Zaffran (WHO) The following updates were presented to the POB: Afghanistan: • 8 wild poliovirus cases and 18 positive environmental samples have been found in Afghanistan in 2018. Shahwalikot district in Kandahar Province is the site of the most recent case, with date of paralysis onset of 27 April 2018. • Transmission has been re-established in Kandahar Province and it is concerning that some districts have been harboring transmission for more than a year. • The biggest barrier to interruption is the lack of accessibility. There is an ongoing ban on house to house campaigns in the Southern region and persistent inaccessibility in the Eastern region due to the deteriorating security situation. The inability to implement interventions to improve quality leads to ongoing missed children. Frequent population movement in the northern and southern corridors contributes to clusters of chronically missed children. Requests of the POB: • Continue to ensure adequate and timely resources to fully implement the National Emergency Action Plan (NEAP) and support funding for critical complementary vaccination activities outside the Financial Resource Requirements (FRR), such as health outreach, nutrition and WASH. • High level advocacy with the Government, including a call from Bill Gates to President Ghani stressing the need to sustain efforts and reiterate that polio should remain a priority following the upcoming elections in October. Page | 1 • Urgent advocacy to gain house-to-house access for quality SIAs in the areas where restrictions on immunization activities are being imposed. Advocacy for international efforts to call for days of tranquility or ceasefires, working with the UN Secretary General to explore this option. The POB offered thanks to the presenter and raised the following observations and questions: • Dr. Elias noted that a request has been submitted to Mr. Gates’ office regarding advocacy with President Ghani. He will follow up to advocate for the meeting to happen quickly and highlighted that Mr. Gates and President Ghani typically meet during the UN General Assembly in September. • Dr. Redfield noted that the program seems to be in a status quo regarding security concerns and asked if there are alternative approaches that GPEI and the government should be considering. • Dr. Abdi asked about specific recommendations regarding the request around advocacy to gain house to house access and approaches the program would suggest. He noted that children are still being missed in accessible areas and asked what can be done to improve this. • Dr. Elias remarked that when looking at the epidemiology, there are distinctly different situations in the South and East. Advocating for days of tranquility will be helpful in the South, however the East presents a different challenge. He asked if there is another strategy being considered in the East to make progress, such as ring fencing the area with strong campaigns in the surrounding regions. o Dr. Zaffran noted that alternative approaches are being implemented, including working to understand and address reasons for refusals, working to improve campaign quality, and a special focus on high risk mobile populations. However, he fears that the program cannot make progress without improving access. One million kids were missed in the last National Immunization Day due to access issues. If the program does not succeed in gaining access, a new, game changing strategy will be needed to interrupt transmission. Action items: • Dr. Elias will follow up with Mr. Gates’ office regarding advocacy with President Ghani. • Dr. Tedros will raise the idea of a ceasefire or days of tranquility with the UN Secretary General to discuss if this is a possibility to pursue and how this would be done. • Dr. Tedros will set up a meeting with President Ghani to advocate for access. Pakistan: • 3 wild poliovirus cases have been found in Pakistan in 2018. The most recent case had a date of paralysis onset of 18 May 2018. All three cases were reported from Duki District in Balochistan. • Transmission persists in the same hotspots and reservoirs as in the past, though it is encouraging that the program is seeing a decline in environmental positives in Karachi and Quetta block. • A key risk to the program is stopping transmission in the common corridors and Karachi, as well as stopping the outbreak in Duki. Sustaining motivation and commitment to a long running program has been a challenge, and the program continues to encounter persistent vaccination resistance, leading to insufficient immunity among geographically accessible populations. There is continued need for strong coordination with Pakistan and Afghanistan to halt transmission in the two corridors. Both countries suffer from weak routine immunization programs and this creates risk for future outbreaks. Page | 2 Requests of the POB: • Advocacy with the caretaker government to ensure that polio eradication remains a priority during political transition. No Objection Certificates are needed for international staff to visit security sensitive area to assess the strength of the program, and advocacy for the approval of the 2019- 2021 multi-year budget is needed. • Advocacy with the Government of Pakistan and donors to ensure adequate resources to fully implement the TAG approved SIA calendar and strategies in the National Emergency Action Plan, including the recommended increase in community-based vaccinators. The POB thanked the presenter and raised the following observations and questions: • Dr. Elias said that historically EMRO has assisted with the No Objection Certificates and noted that he has spoken with the Regional Director Dr. Ahmed and suggested he could help. He asked for any additional guidance to move this issue forward. Dr. Tedros echoed these sentiments. • Dr. Abdi remarked that the low routine immunization coverage is putting the polio program at risk. He noted that the program should work closely with Gavi to think about what push is required to improve RI given the linkages between the two. • Mr. McGovern voiced Rotary’s strong support for the planned increase of community-based vaccinators to push progress. • Dr. Elias noted that BMGF will plan to engage the new government at the time of the UN General Assembly and prioritize this engagement for Mr. Gates, however the interim government engagement is being led by WHO. o Dr. Tedros remarked that WHO will follow up with the interim government around the requested advocacy issues. Action item: • BMGF to engage the new Pakistan Government at the time of the UN General assembly, while WHO will follow up on advocacy with the current caretaker government. Nigeria: • No wild poliovirus circulation has been detected in almost two years. There is currently circulation of VDPV2 in three states- Jigawa, Gombe and Sokoto- to which Nigeria is responding aggressively. Routine immunization is at disastrous levels in all three states, well below 20%. • These outbreaks are manageable; there is a strong program in place with good oversight, and management of the mOPV2 vaccine supply has improved. • Thanks to the implementation of the Reach Every Settlement (RES) and Reach Inaccessible Children (RIC) strategies, the number of unreached children has gone from over 600,000 to about 104,000 in Borno. The remaining children are spread out in over 5000 unreached settlements. • Access to these communities is the main challenge to the program in Nigeria, as well as waning political commitment, evidenced by a reduced financial commitment from the government. Weak routine immunization also continues to be a major risk to stopping transmission. Requests of the POB: Page | 3 • Ask the POB to send a letter to the Governor of Borno State encouraging commitment to urgently closing the remaining gaps in accessibility. • Ask the POB to send a letter to President Buhari regarding the budget and request that the National Task Force be convened to discuss polio funding, encouraging the Government of Nigeria to allocate N4 billion to polio in the 2018 budget. The POB offered thanks to the presenter and raised the following observations and questions: • Dr. Elias noted that the Gates Foundation has been very active, working in partnership with Mr. Dangote, advocating for access in the North. Access has improved but there are still unreached children. A letter can be sent to the head of Borno, but the Gates Foundation will continue to work mainly through Mr. Dangote. Regarding the budget, this has already been approved for 2018 and any new budget would have to come from the next government. • Dr.
